Današnji svijet pritišću višestruki problemi me|u kojima ekološki problem nikako nije najmanji. Slijepi razvoj i tehnički napredak ne smiju više imati glavnu riječ u čovjekovu životu jer mogu dovesti do globalne katastrofe svih nas na kugli zemaljskoj. Današnja teologija pokazuje iznimno zanimanje za ekološki problem svijeta tako da se pojav¬ljuje nova grana te znanstvene discipline koja se može nazvati ekoteologijom koja pokušava istražiti kako čovjek treba skladno živjeti u kući svijeta. Kršćanske su crkve brzo uočile ekološki problem i dale svoj doprinos upozorivši svijet da je to moralni problem našega vremena. Istovremeno Crkve pozivaju sve kršćane i ljude dobre volje da se svi skupa angažiraju u stvaranju boljeg i pravednijeg svijeta. Ta svijest je nadasve izražena u shvaćanju svijeta i čovjeka u katoličkoj teologiji i nauci njezinih papa. Papa Ivan Pavao II. posebice upozorava na duboku moralnu krizu današnjeg čovjeka iz koje proizlazi i ekološka kriza. Treba promijeniti stavove i način života i poštivati svijet i čovjeka u njoj kao Božji dar. To je iskonski i jedini pravi put što nam ga je najbolje pokazao sv. Franjo Asiški. Mnogi danas više ne osjećaju ljepotu svijeta i života te se doživljavaju suvišnima i izoliranima, žive na rubovima života, izvarani i izmanipulirani tako da ne vide niti osjećaju ljepotu svijeta i života oko sebe. Za njih je sve neprijateljsko, a ponajviše ljudi. Upravo takvima treba nužno pomoći da iznova otkriju ljepotu svijeta i života i da ponovno počnu voljeti i živjeti zajedno sa svima.Contemporary world is under the pressure of multiple problems, among which the environmental problem is certainly not the smallest one. A blind development and technological progress must not be the most important in the human life, because they can lead to a global catastrophy for everyone on the Earth. Modern theology shows exceptional interest for worldwide environmental issues, so that a new brach of theology has emerged. It can be labelled as ecotheology. Ecotheology tries to explore the ways of how man should live harmoniously in the house of the world. Christan churches early perceived the environmental problem pointing out at the fact that the environmental problem is actually one of the moral problems of our times. At the same time, Churches invite all Christans and people of good will to engage in building up a better and fairer world. This consciousness is particulary expressed in the perception of the world and man in Catholic theology and teaching of its popes. Pope John Paul II. points out at the deep moral crisis of the modern man which also results in the environmental crisis. Attitudes and life–style should be transformed, and the world and man should be respected as gifts of God. This is an original and the only just way, as St. Francis of Assisi has shown. Today many people do not feel the beauty of the world and life, and feel superfluous and isolated, living on the brinks of life, cheated and manipulated. They see their enemies everywhere, especially among their fellow men. It is those people that should be helped to rediscover the beauty of the world and life, so to start loving and living together with everyone.
Die heutige Welt leidet unter mehreren Problemen, von denen das Umweltproblem eines der größten ist. Die blinde Fortschrittsgläubigkeit und die technische Entwicklung dürfen nicht mehr im menschlichen Leben ausschlaggebend sein, weil sie zu einer globalen Katastrophe führen können. Die aktuelle Theologie zeigt sich am Umweltproblem besonders interessiert, so daß sogar eine neue Disziplin entstanden ist, die sich als Ökotheologie bezeichnen läßt. In ihrem Rahmen wird der Versuch unternommen, das Leben des Menschen mit seiner Umwelt in Einklang zu bringen. Die christlichen Kirchen haben das Umweltprobem früh wahrgenommen und darauf hingewiesen, daß es das moralische Problem unserer Zeit ist. Zugleich fordern die Kirchen alle Christen und Menschen guten Willens dazu auf, sich an der Gestaltung einer besseren und gerechteren Welt zu beteiligen. Dieses Bewußtsein schlägt sich vor allem in der Art nieder, wie die katholische Theologie und die Päpste in ihren Lehren die Welt und den Menschen auffassen. Papst Johennes Paul II. weist vor allem auf eine tiefe Krise der Moral hin, aus der auch die Umweltkrise hervorgeht. Einstellungen und Lebensweisen müssen geändert, und der Mensch und die Natur als Gottesgabes geehrt werden. Das ist der ursprüngliche und rechte Weg, den uns der hl. Franziskus von Assisi zeigte. Viele Menschen fühlen nicht mehr die Schönheit der Welt und des Lebens, sie fühlen sich isoliert und leben an den Rändern des Lebens. Sie sehen überall, vor allem aber in den sie umgebenden Menschen, ihre Feinde. Gerade solche Personen bedürfen unserer Hilfe, damit sie die Schönheit der Welt und des Lebens wieder entdecken und wieder anfangen, zu lieben und mit anderen Menschen zu leben.
